I'm Moving to Atlanta

Posted on November 15, 2006 2:57 PM

That's it. I'm packing my bags and moving my ass down to Atlanta. I've only spent three days there and fell in love several times over. Ha! The city must have made quite an impression on me if I wanna move without having been to a strip club.

I'm allergic to poultry, so I was glad to not see any birds in the A. I mean, I assume that they can be found everywhere, but I just didn't encounter any during my stay. I came in contact with nothing but friendly, well-mannered women down there, from the diner waitresses to the local BET freelancers. Busted chicks were quite scarce.

Jermaine Dupri's Welcome To Atlanta - BET.com Pre Hip-Hop Awards Party (November 11th) must have had a policy at the door or something. No sword fights there, sir. Now, I've never been to a Diddy party, but considering how dope Jermaine's shindig was, I don't need to bother with the Puffster's affairs. Shouts to W&W PR for putting me on the list. Being held at Atlanta’s Mason Murer Fine Arts Gallery, the fiesta was sponsored by Hennessey, Boost Mobile and BET.com. Let's not forget the "gifted" dancers who entertained on the stage and speakers. Nelly, Chamillionaire, Snoop Dogg and Styles P all made appearances while JD served as the master of ceremony for the latter part of the evening.

There weren't any screw faces and nobody was too cool to dance. It seems like Atlanta is filled with the fun other cities lost years ago. The same rules seem to apply outside of the club. Strangers routinely greet each other with respectful nods here. It's refreshing. So I'm out. I hate to love New York, but I'm about to start looking for spots in the A, preferably at proximity from Body Tap or Magic City.

  • I figured it out. Record sales are so low because niggas is puttin mixtapes every two weeks so who needs a major album just keep dishin out mixtapes. If niggas stop puttin out 1000 mixtapes in 6 months you might sell some cd's when your official cd comes out.

  • Of course everybody wants to move to ATL. Me being from New Jersey, you know how much you can get for a house down there? A hell of a lot more than what you get up here plus the weather sucks and that Turnpike stench just wont go away. I visit my fam down in da A every summer, and get pissed when I gotta make that drive back up 85 & 95. I must admit, the summer's are a bitch down south but then again they dont call Hotlanta for nothing. For now ATL is my second home, but in the future it will be my permanent home.

  • Oh yeah , Atlanta got all the DL bruthas. We dont even get at women no more down here. You shouldn't come, because these gay dudes outnumber straight dudes like 3 to 1 in ATL. But i guess you already know, since you seem to be up on all the DL hangouts, what did you do in San Fran last week anyway?

Country shit is weak point blank the only southern rappers that are any good are luda and outkast chamillionaire maybe rick ross, jeezy (strong maybe!) and weezy? fucking rap sucks i listen to jazz now!

  • J-Roc says...
  • Yeah ATL is the shit mayne I love my city and my state. We probably have the finest women in the world in the A. Oh yeah Body Tap and Magic City are fire, but Strokers is my shit all the girls in there are fine as hell

  • Key from the City says...
  • I went to school in Atlanta and lived there for 4 years after I graduated. It's a nice city but for my career, I needed to come back home to the NY. Plus it's getting hella crowded now as if 400 and 285 wasn't a parking lot already.

  • November 16, 2006 12:12 PM
  • ATL Colli Park says...
  • The ratio of women to men is crazy down there. Currently I live in VA but I do plan to move back and make a home. I love the A! But we do have some fake ass chicks down here. I would say Miami is the southern San Fran not the A. And you can't forget the food. But if you decide to venture past Agusta you better make sure where you plan to stop or just plan to get down to Fla.

    @Akeem Kick Rocks bitch! if you don't like it then post some where else

    There are more probably more DL dudes in NY than in the A. Again the ration is like 20 women to every man. You really have to be lookin for a homo to find one down here.

  • ATL Colli Park - you speak the truth

    I just remember 10 years ago when I went to the A four times in one summer. I was gonna move then but that's another story. Whoever said NYC is a slum is right - and so is newark, jersey city, irvington, nj. And I'm from there. But real talk, the south is where it's at. Even if you don't live in Atlanta, the south in general is way better than the north as far as quality of life and living. The only thing I miss about NYC is Canal St and the shopping.

  • GET THIS SHIT STRAIGHT THE ATL IS NOT THE PLACE TO BE. FIRST OF ALL, IF YOU DRIVE OUTSIDE THE ATL A NIGGER MIGHT GET SHOT BY A DEER HUNTER WHITE CRACKER. IN THE OTHER HAND EVERY LARGE CITY IN THE USA IS LOCATED CLOSE TO THE SEA OR IN THE BORDERLINE WITH ANOTHER COUNTRY. WHY? BECAUSE THOSE CITIES ARE EASIER ESCAPE FOR JEWS, IN CASE SOMEONE TRIES TO GET RID OF THEM. IM NOT JEW, BUT I HAVE NOTICED THAT THIS ETHNIC GROUP LIVE IN CITIES CLOSE BY THE SEA. TAKE FOR EXAMPLE, NYC ,CHI(WHICH IS CLOSE TO CANADA) LA, SAN FRANCISCO , SEATTLE AND MIAMI WHICH IS 90 MILES AWAY FROM CUBA.IN CONCLUSION, THE ATL MIGHT BE A PLACE FOR PARTYING BUT TO LIVE THERE WITH THOSE REDNECK RUNNING THE WHOLE STATE FUCK THAT. SPECIALLY WITH A FUCKING CONFEDERATE FLAG STICKER IN THE BACK OF THEIR TRUCK. JUST THINK THE SOUTH WILL RISE AGAIN

  • I like the A it's a cool city but I love jacksonville florida I think j'ville is going to become the new atlanta they have a up in coming hip hop scene about to blow up. The one bad thing is the dope game there they have a high murder rate because of the dope game cats are fighting for dope spots but I think when the hip hop scene blow up that will help cut that down some. I also like the programs for brothas and sistas there to help them focus on education which is the key I love that city I went there and fell in love with it I love jacksonville florida.

  • I have family all through GA and make frequent trips to the A and surounding areas. It's not that polite, especially with all the non GA people moving down there, and they are about to take over the city with rich folks and move everyone else out to the outskirts. It will always be a nice place to visit, but as far as moving there, I'm cool!!!

    I MEAN GA IS GOOD TO GET AFFORDABLE PROPERTY. THE GAY THING IS CRAZY THEN U GOT EVERY CHICK WITH A KID. SO OUT OF 20 CHICKS 8 OR 9 OF THEM HAS AIDS AND ANOTHER 4 TO 5 WITH KIDS LEAVING 1 OR 2 OUT OF THE 20 AS WIFEY MATERIAL IF YOU DECIDED TO EVENTUALLY SETTLE DOWN.

  • I definitely think NC triangle, charlotte,etc got next. What's great about NC is that there is a mixture of styles of hip hop. A little bit of nyc flavor and southern flavor of hip hop music. The movement is gonna come.

  • MEATIE says...
  • I can't understand how people are saying Atlanta is the shit when all I've heard people talk about is the women. What the hell else is there down there? I have plenty of friends and family that live down there and they do talk about how racist it is down there, how there are alot of homosexuals down there, how it's over crowded and how everyone is fat down there. I know those chicks look a mess because I seen it with my own eyes. People want to move to the South right now because they are "Supposedly" running hip hop right now. Regardless what anybody say's there is no place like NEW York period. I couldn't live down there with people that don't speak proper english. Stop making the money I'm making here and take a pay cut? Hell No! I know the cost of living is cheaper down there but what's my only option? Dancing in a strip club? because that seems to be the only thing that's talked about down there. Stop dressing like I do to start wearing cheap shit to fit in? Hell No! I'm not impressed at all. The whole population of men won't exist soon with all the faggots down there! Never! I'M FROM NEW YORK! NEW YORK!

The only reasons outside of the negatives that you'd move down there is for low property value in the surrounding areas of Atlanta, not Atlanta itself since you deal with NY prices. Cost of living is 50%. Yes there is a $3 curve on every job but if you were say making $11 an hour out here you would make $8 an hour down there but it would be like you're making 11 because the cost of living balances things out. I mean shit it was #1 on the 2006 Forbes List for best place to relocate to. The reality besides the faggots and ignorance is that it has become the new Florida..everyone runs down there to buy up property. The foolishness though is I want say all of the people, but the people are stupid down there. Education wise yes but what is wrong with you? NY IS THE MONEY STATE so we understand off the back that a townhouse overlooking Downtown Atlanta with 4 BR and 2 Bath and some extra shit for 145K is a steal. Georgia has the quality of life factor as well. Fuck that ignorant shit of strip clubs and whatever. If you a hustler you going down to Atlanta for the same reason they're mad at us "locals"...we run down there and buy up all their property and flip that into other businesses hence the high turn out ratio of millionaires.

  • Yeah NY i getting real 10% of all "straight" men have had gay sex. thats every one out of ten guys! Aeekem that was 93 this 06. jacksonville is nice I've been there acouple of time.
    @djflame yeah all those spots Charlotte ,Raleigh , durham, and greensboro is really going to blow up in a couple of years. And for all ya'll sayin all black folk down here have power also remeber freak nek but you out of towners didn't know how to act so the city shut it down just like richmond shut down black college week end in VA.

  • Contrary to any of the people on here that are hating on Atl, it didn't always use to be like this. It has actually gotten much better and safer for you booty ass niggas who be hating. Might I remind you that prior to the 96' olympics we were just like any other state with stupid ass violence and murders. But now 10 years later the cracks have revived the city by tearing down all 40 of the ject's with the exception of 13, and moving all of these people to far away places not caring where they go. It's a fact, just look up gentrification in Atl. And that gay shit, the next time you run into a gay dude or chick, ask them where they are from. Because they are not from here. They are from a block near you. I know I work with and around alot of them.

  • Atlanta's Anonymous says...
  • Oh yeah and one more thing, the real Atl only has a population of half a million people here so how could you possibly think we would have more gay men than places like NY or LA for that matter. And please can it with that "They Don't Speak Proper English" shit. That's just some hood shit period. I can gaurantee you that you can run into some real sophisticated and smart ass people down here. Damn some, a whole lot and they will be from Ga too. Ya'll motherfuckers sound like tourists from other country's with that judging different cities shit.

  • I plan on moving to the ATL also, people need to stop hatin on other cities that's just retarded. I'm from tha Bay Area Frisco to exact and you'll keep comparing frisco to the ATL. Frisco does have tons gay people but it's not what people think. The only thing that makes san francisco stand out as far as gays is because they have the own little community called the castro. San Francisco has a part of the city for everybody, black,mexican,chinese,hippies on haight,ect so stop thinking frisco is all gay cause they don't advertise the ghettos with triple homicides everyday and all the other corruption that goes on. But anyway I think the ATL is where it's at right now. So give props when props are due. The east and west coast is catered towards white uppper and middle class people and we have to compete with them in there world, but Atlanta is geared more towards african americans with historic black colleges,also it's home to the largest black entreprenuers & Millionaires, it's a majority black city that is actually progressing. How could you hate on that. I love the west coast but let's face it there is not alot of successful black people doing big things around here because there is a huge lack of opportunities for black people. So big up to the ATL for having a place for black people to call home that ain't the ghetto and does have plenty jobs for our people provided by our people. And who cares about fags there taking over America if you have'nt noticed there everywhere the only difference is they are accepted in some places more than others. Get a grip on the punk shit cause it's bigger than that!

  • I'm from Atlanta, I love it and its always gone be my home. We got beautiful women, good food, and we have become a great international metropolis. We have problems just like every other city with traffic, drugs, and murders. I don't like New York folks that much because they so arrogant and disrespectful. I've kicked it with people from the midwest, Cali, and everywhere else and they respect our city and there wouldn't be so many Down Low Faggots here if all of them would have just stayed up north where they came from because most of the people who are from here are totally against that shit.

  • Okay, first of all i LIVE in atlanta and if you were born and raised here like i was, you'd know how annnoying these people get.


    I admit, we be flossin down here, but if you stay here for a long time you would definately wanna move back to where you came from, this place makes New Jersey look like The Virgin islands, for christ sake. You need to get out more.

  • Of course whereever black people are, the culture is gonna be off the chain. Black women are beautiful everywhere I go. I think that the A is a better city to visit, than to live. I think New York is better. No, I'm not from NY. I'm from DC. Technically I live in the south anyway, so I aint bashin. New York has everything you could want. The only thing is finding cheap houses to live in, but if you have to find money for something, you gonna find the money so calm down. New York has a downtown, within a down town. Manhattan is the shit man. There are beautiful women there too. Different types of people instead of one type. So many historic places are there and that is where big music business takes place. If you wanna talk about more of a quiet feel in nyc, there are the outher places like Bronx, Queens and Brooklyn. New York state is beautiful too. People will only be in love with a new city when they first move there though. When you get used to it, you wanna go somewhere else. That's why I say God bless airplanes. It's all about what you like though. I've been on plenty of websites with people saying that they wanna move from the A, to New York. So, it's just how you feel.

  • Yeah, I live in the A, I've heard of alotta gay guys, DL, whateva you wanna call it.....I actually think that, you, at all times have to be careful cuz what nigga is gonna tell you that he has had sex with another nigga? Use condoms!!!!! Bigup Lefteye! At the same time, you gotta see what's really up with the dude you about to mess with, see his tendencies, check him out. If u got good instincts, and intuition, you'll know. But keep careful, no matter what my girls, and take everything seriously...don't get wrapped up with a nigga that dont seem like he about shit......
